I’m currently a Plex user and access it from Apple TV’s. I find this is a smooth and stable experience that everyone in the house enjoys and is comfortable. I also use PlexAmp on laptops, mobile and CarPlay.

I am interested in Jellyfin and am wondering if I can expect any hurdles or rough edges moving over?

EDIT: Thanks all for the great feedback and suggestions. I think I will give it a try in parallel with Influx and see if it’s worth the $100 lifetime purchase.

    Entering an IP address is complex for someone who has managed to install a Jellyfin server?

      Yea, I find needing to know the IP annoying, but by no means difficult or problematic.

      I do wish many devs would put some effort into discovery (with Apple stuff, Bonjour works fine, everything else there’s mDNS).

      Thankfully the Jellyfin Tizen app (Samsung) at least remembers servers and shows them by name after connecting by IP.
